<p>And what are "hardcore" APs? No need to be PC here, just want to see how you guys think.</p>
<p>I personally think all the legit science ones are hardcore, add calc ab/bc to that and of course foreign languages, assuming you aren't a native speaker. Thoughts?</p>
<p>EASY:
AP Environmental Science
AP Stats
AP Psych
AP English Language
AP Spanish (IF you’re good at spanish)</p>
<p>HARD:
All the other sciences
All math (other than stats)
AP Music</p>
<p>MEDIUM (just alot of content):
AP USH
AP Gov</p>
<p>AP Psych is not easy…</p>
<p>AP Chemistry for me is incredibly easy. I am getting an average 94% and I am like on 60% on AP Psych…</p>
<p>Woot, yea I just started taking AP psych and I gotta say on avg, its not the hardest but its not the easiest as well, it does involve studying and concentration on finding and applying ideas but I think if u study hard and believe in psych, u can do well. At the midst of things, I think it will become easier as your mind flows.</p>
<p>I would also add AP economics to the easy list, my teacher is gr8 and the materiel is very fun to learn. If u work hard in that class, you can do very well.</p>
<p>I took AP chem and decided to drop out just bcus the math got too pressed on for me, couldn’t concentrate well but for those who take it, I think the best part of it is if u no reactions very well and do well on labs, you’ll do fine in the class.</p>
<p>ap psych is a joke. I have never taken ap psych in my life, but with barrons’s psych, i crammed it in 2 weeks(intense memorizing lol.), and got a 4… which is like 4 credits for my school :)</p>
<p>When I took last year APWH exam, I thought it was a joke because the MC was common sense if you read the textbook and the FRQs were extremely easy to respond to.</p>
<p>I think that determining whether an AP is a joke or hardcore really depends on the teacher. To me, Calculus BC is kind of a joke because I have an incredibly good teacher, while European History (which I haven’t seen being said to be “hardcore”) has become incredibly difficult because my teacher is terrible (to say the least)</p>
<p>But, I would agree that AP Environmental Science is a joke–I looked at a review book and I couldn’t believe how simple the concepts are.</p>
<p>Psych jkckdkdlldldld</p>
<p>AP Physics C is FAR beyond my comprehension. AP French and AP German are easy for me, although a math/science person would beg to differ :D</p>
<p>AP Chinese is seriously easy. No joking about that.</p>
<p>AP Statistics is pretty hard for me, and the rest of my class, but I attribute that to my insturcter.</p>
<p>AP Biology and AP US Hist are the easiest AP’s that I’ve ever taken.</p>
<p>AP Spanish Language :p</p>
<p>EASY:
Environmental Science
Stats
Psych</p>
<p>MEDIUM (average AP here):
Gov
Econ
Histories
Biology</p>
<p>HARD(start digging those books):
everything else excluding languages and lit/lang</p>
<p>Languages, Lit, and Lang heavily depends on how familiar with the language in the first place.</p>
<p>How’s AP World History?
I’m taking that this May as a sophomore.</p>
<p>Honestly? Joke APs? I don’t think they exist. Usually people say some APs are a joke AFTER they get a 5 and magically forget all the work before that.</p>

<p>@Alt_F4 - Maybe. On the APWH, MC was indeed common sense. The only thing I was worried about was the FR questions of the year and when I saw that they were easy prompts, I was extremely certain that I receive a 5 on that exam before AP Score report was mailed.</p>
